The cup window for the caps is closed unfortunately. You guys had a great run, but its over. Its better to go into a rebuild now than end up getting stuck where San Jose is. Ovi, Backstrom, Oshie, Holtby, Carlson, Orlov, Kuznetsov and Eller are all declining. Its better to trade some of them now than wait and have them end up becoming terrible contracts

The only players out of the ones you listed that are declining are Ovi and Backy, and Ovi is still one of the best goal scorers and Backstrom is still a 1st/2nd line center. Carlson is 30, Kuzy is 28, Orlov is 29 and Eller is 31. You think those guys are declining? Carlson and Eller had career years. Oshie is 33 but still put up the same numbers as he has since he was 26. Better players who are 28-31 generally do not decline.

Look at the last 3 years of Kuzy's career and tell me hes not gotten worse after winning the cup. Carlson will most likely not repeat this season. Orlov's best season is behind him. Oshie is locked up until he is like 38. Ovi is pretty much just a goal scorer now. Hes a defensive liability, hes not a good playmaker, not a good playdriver, not good in transition either. Normally guys like Eller dont put up the same numbers at age 32.

Kuzy last 3 years he’s top 30 in ppg and 3rd in playoffs points. Sounds like a player in decline.

Ovechkin is still a ppg 50 goal guy.

Backstrom has averaged 70-80 points since coming into the league. What player is declining ? I would love to hear this explanation?

Holtby isn’t a cap Sammy replaces him

Oshie is still a 50 point guy that’s his averages

ORLOV has his best season this year

Carlson is the front runner for the Norris

Eller career year

Again thoughtless comment. Do you even watch hockey. What players numbers dropped for you to assume the window closed?

all Ovi does is score now. hes not good at anything else

Backstrom is no longer a top 3 playmaker in the NHL. hes not even on Ovi's line anymore and hes signed for too much for too long

I'll give you the Holtby one

Oshie isnt getting better and hes now on the 3rd line, playing with 3rd liners, but hes paid like hes a top liner

Orlov's best season was 17-18 where he was insane

Carlson isnt the front runner for the Norris, Josi is. Carlson shouldnt even be top 3 imo

Eller is only going down from here

He’s always scored and his defensive game has improved over time lol. Scoring is the point of the game isn’t it?

Oshie has played on the 2nd line for his entire Capitals career, including this season. That is just a blatant lie. You are running off of a confirmation bias right from the start. How about looking at this without the lens of 'well they must be declining,' and then trying to find proof of that even when there is none. Could there not be other factors? Maybe a coach that didn't necessarily inspire them? Maybe an older team that misses their families and children while being in the bubble? We'll see how they do next year, I fully expect them to make the playoffs and compete for the cup again.

All of these are your opinions, not facts lol. "Eller is only going down from here." How is that anything other than an opinion. You literally said "in my opinion" on the Carlson take. Oshie is still on the 2nd line, so just untrue, Orlov's best season can be debated upon, maybe 17-18, maybe 19-20 but definitely not an outright fact. Many people think Carlson is the front runner. Backstrom is playing both 1st and 2nd line, since Kuznetsov usually works better with Ovi and WIlson, has nothing to do with Backstrom not being as good of a player.

Facts > thoughtless opinions. No player on the caps is showing the type of decline that would lead you to believe they aren’t a playoffs team
